"What's that?" Damien said - when he noticed that the manager paused for a moment. "I told you this guy is a criminal. Bring out the stolen item already" Damien said - as if he just gained triumph over Bryan. Charlotte's skin crawled into her flesh as she feared that Damien's accusation was beginning to seem so true. The look on Bryan's face too - gave him away. "What's that in your pocket sir?" The manager asked - obviously directing the question to Bryan. Bryan remained mute. He gave the manager a blank stare and looked away. "I told you he's a thief" Damien yelled. "I thought as much too" the manager said. He pulled out the arched object. His eyebrows creased at the sight of the sleek golden bracelet. "Oh my God...." He exclaimed. Everyone exclaimed with a loud huff. Charlotte's hand fleew to her mouth - in a quest to prevent her from screaming. But she already led out a loud gasp. "I said it..... I told ya" Damien gloated - clapping his hands. "Obviously he stole this expen

"The card is working" the salesperson said. She cheerfully pulled the card out and stretched the card back to Bryan. She parked the expensive purse and gave it to Charlotte. Charlotte's boyfriend's had his lips fretted in a oval shape. And his eyes widened in disappointment when the salesperson stretched the purse to Charlotte. He wished Charlotte was going to turn it down. But the Blondie stretched her hands forward - face brightened with an alluring smile. "You're gonna take that?" Her boyfriend's voice echoed. "Damien, really?" Charlotte muttered - the smile on her face vanished as she shook her head in disbelief. "It's a harmless gift" she said - clutching the bag from the salesperson. Bryan's face shimmered with a little glint of surprise. Finally he got to know the name of his supposed rival. Maybe the name of the man who snatched girlfriend. Damien. "Thank you so much Bryan" Charlotte appreciated - clutching the purse to her chest. "You're most welcome" Bryan said - wit

Bryan's intent was to steal a glance and continue shopping, but Charlotte locked eyes with him - immediately he stepped to the side of the counter. Charlotte gestured her boyfriend to look towards Bryan and when he did, a scornful chuckle curling on his lips.Bryan still couldn't maintain eye contact, yet he stepped forward too. Like he hadn't been scorned by this couple a couple of weeks ago. "I guess this store is now a hiding place for losers" Charlotte's boyfriend scorned - exchanging glances with her. "Isn't that so obvious?" Charlotte retorted - a bit too surprised to disguise it, as her eyebrows widened. "What are you doing here?" Charlotte's boyfriend said - hands crossed across his chest "You retarded broke ass" Bryan hesitated for a split second. He's been used to being called demeaning names, but at this point he wasn't willing to entertain such disrespect and he was ready to stand his ground. "I came here to shop too" Bryan said - feigning a smile. He pressed his lip

"Its a pleasure to meet you sir" A man said - walking closer towards Bryan as he walked out of the elevator. "....thank you" Bryan muttered. He tucked his hand into his pocket in a bid to hide his anxiety."My name is Franklin, I'm the General manager. I've been instructed to show you around sir" The man said - his canines blared as if he was starstruck."Fine. I'd follow your lead" Bryan retorted. Bryan isn't in the best version of his wardrobe like he'll be on a Christmas eve. But every part of his grooming portrayed elegance, luxury and confidence. Even though his mind at the moment was far from confidence. It wasn't a nay saying when they said "Confidence can be faked" Bryan getting to know that his father owns the biggest tech company in the United States sound so unreal. But what's so unbelievable is that he'd be ascending the helm of that company - as the new CEO. Morris Inc is a household name in the tech industry and to think Bryan is the new CEO sent shrill of fright an

Olivia is the daughter of a successful business magnate - May Williams. May is a single mother - maybe a feminist who believes in attaining everything a man can get. As long as its something money and hard work can get - she'd never back down. Her single motherhood tends to give her freedom - freedom away from all the troubles that comes with being married. But on Fridays, the boss lady is seen in the parking lot of several hotels. Moaning to the energetic thrusts of some young guys on a cozy Friday night wouldn't be too bad, huh? Despite her secretly immoral lifestyle. May is still a disciplinarian who tries to impose morals on her daughter, even if she's like a clergyman who's doesn't act in harmony with what they preach. Olivia never got to meet her father. Neither was her mother willing to say anything about him. When she was a kid, May used to tell her that her father had gone to heaven and was going to return soon. That was ten years ago. Maybe the word 'soon' deserves a new s

Al gulped down the entire glass of vodka, his face lightened. A whizz sped out of his lips as he paced towards the table to pour himself another glass.“What’s the plan?” he asked, directing the question to no one. Tyler turned away from the computer screen, letting out the sigh lurking in his throat. “I think we should give up on this mission already.” he suggested, leaning closer to see the reaction on everyone’s face. Al scoffed. Ria maintained a straight face and Dera shot him a glare. “Don’t look at me like that!” Tyler growled and stood up. “Vladimir is dead. There is no fucking way we can access that vault.” he added rolling his gaze back to Al.“Just shut up and let me think!” Dera screeched, fist tightened at her sides and gritted teeth. Tyler’s eyes fired a menacing glare. “Whatever you’re thinking about, make it fast. That diamond will be sold in 2 days.” “I have an idea.” Ria cuts in. Al’s eyes widened in curiosity. He placed his glass on the table and press

It's been two days. Two days after Raymond's surgery and two days after Al introduced the Starlight Serenity Diamond mission. Raymond's condition seemed to be getting better. But Al wouldn't let Ria rest. After all, she calls his attention to a part of the mission he didn't pay attention to. While coming up with the plan for the heist. Al assigned Ria to uncover the mystery of who had the code and the biometrics to unlock the vault in the Bloodstone Tower. Without it, every attempt - would be like pouring oil in water. "Raymond would never make such mistakes." Ria, thought. Raymond is always the mastermind and executor of all their missions. It's the first mission after his (supposed) demise and Al is already planning a mission with a solid tact or perfect exit plan. Ria was skeptical about the whole mission. Especially about what just happened happened to Raymond. Everyone tries to remain loyal to Al. But he ends up taking their life. Ray's a living proof. But she Ria wouldn't w

"Ria how long would it take you to gather evidence. I can see that you're not being serious with this mission. Don't push me, your fucking retarded brunette." Ria rolled her eyes as she read the text. She put her phone back in her pocket, and turned her gaze back on o the hospital bed. Where Raymond was laying. It's been two days after his surgery. He's still in a coma. And according to the doctor's statement, his chances of survival are higher. She couldn't wait to see him back on his feet. She leaned forward in her chair, beeping or hospital machines blaring in her ears. Ria placed her hands on Raymond's feeble fingers. An oxygen machine was placed across his face. "I'm really sorry, Ray." Ria muttered. For a split second, it felt like she was apologizing to someone who's listening. "I'm sorry, you had to be betrayed this way. I know you're going hate everyone so much for doing this to you." Until the first tear dropped, Ria didn't realize how stunned and broken she was. Guilt s

Ria couldn't get the muffled sound she heard out of her head. While Tyler was in the car moments ago, he noticed a slight movement on Raymond's body. A part of her think he might be alive or something. And that's the reason she alighted from the vehicle. Just to dashed a single spark of curiosity. Exasperated breaths glided out of Ria's mouth as she proceeded towards the bush. She looked around for a split second, before walking a little bit closer to the dumped body. Ria ripped the leather wrap apart. And she pulled Raymond out of it and placed him on the bare ground. The darkness made a little bit dark to figure out Raymond's face. Yet, the bright shimmers of the moon slapped out Raymond's wrist watch. Ria knelt beside him. The cold grasses sent cold shrills down, her spine, but the terror in her heart wouldn't let her bother. She slowly paced two fingers on Raymond's neck - hoping a pulse would push through. A surge of disappointment ran through her system as none was forth com

Tears trickled down Raymond's cheeks. When the first bullet pierced through his chest, he locked eyes with the barrel of a gun - clinging to Dera's hand. It felt like he was lost in a trance until the second bullet pierced through his chest. Raymond groaned in pain. Not only because of the excruciating pain from bleeding scar. But because this whole betrayal scheme had Dèra in it.He fell to the floor - eyes soaked in tears, a heart smashed into fragments, and a chest - pierced with two bullets. AI took the gun off Dera's grip. "You still have the mafia blood running in your veins." Al commended, mashing his mouth on Dera's lips. Tyler and Ria exchanged glances, their eyes - sticking out in terror. The last thing they expected Al to do was kill Raymond. He's the smartest and fastest killer in the gang. At first, Ria wanted to defend Raymond. But Al's ruthlessness sent shrills of fear down her gut. If he can kill Raymond without a flick of remorse, driving a knife into her throat w

Raymond blinked his eyes rapidly to ensure he wasn't dreaming or hallucinating. He flinched when Dera walked into the room. His lips - were wide open as if he had just seen a ghost. For a moment, he expected Dera to have lacerations on her skin, or blood gushing out of her veins. Because anyone abducted by Trysis is always beaten till their skin is unrecognizable. So what happened? But Dera was hale and spotless. Her face was even adorned with alluring makeup. Raymond squinted his eyes multiple times - unable to process what was going on. And the fact that AI introduced Dera as a surprise heightened his anxiety and shock. "Dera?" Raymond blurted - with a flitting gaze. "Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on here?" He gazed at Ria as if he'd found the answer to his question on her face. Ria broke eye contact and dug her fingers into her palms. Ria to disguise her surprise, her body language gave her away. Ria has got snakes in her closet. Tyler had a dismayed look on his f
